Potato seed production

The high quality potato is one of most important and successful trends of SeDeK development, which is supervised by company experts and invited consultants from leading Russian Scientific Research Institutes of Potato Production.

More than 200 potato varieties cultivated in Russia and abroad, are being tested on company experimental fields. Only best varieties are then used for large-scale production.

While realizing the importance of healthy planting material to obtain high crops, SeDeK is dealing with the production of an improved potato. Scientists from the A.G. Lorh All-Russian Scientific & Research Institute of Potato Farming together with SeDeK experts have developed and implemented an innovated seed potato production pattern, based on an improved virus-free basis. This method provides following seedage stages for 5 years: tissue culture material – nuclear stock (mini-tubers) – first field reproduction – super-superelite – superelite – elite potato material. This is the guarantee to obtain high quality seed potato, providing annually high marketable yields.
